It seems Tyler is playing well but has little to show for it in the 6 games since the all-star break. He has 24 shots in those games and is averaging 18 minutes of ice time which is about 2 minutes more per game than he was averaging up to the all-star break. The extra ice could be due to Horton being injured but I am sure CJ would find someone else to give that ice to if he didn't think Seguin deserved it. As long as the Bruins are winning it doesn't matter who scores but they haven't been playing great lately. Lines do get stale at points during the year and it isn't unusual to split a line up for a short time. Often they are put back together at another point in the season. Is it time to put Tyler with Lucic for a little bit or do you think as long as he is getting chances it is just a matter of time before he starts getting a few points?

Hunt, I never really noticed Seguin's rough stretch because he has been playing well still. That line looks dangerous most times they come over the boards so I'd be hesitant to break them up.

Thanks for your thoughts Dez and I hope you are right Boris - a big goal or two against the blueshirts and habs this week would certainly be a great way to start getting back on the scoresheet on a regular basis.

Claude put Lucic and Seguin with Kelly earlier in the year, and they had a great game or two as I recall. Was that the Leaf shellacking? The chemistry didn't last, but it wouldn't be a bad juggle on a night when the team isn't getting much done.

I'm not surprised that Seguin's numbers are dropping off a bit. I didn't really expect that he'd lead the team in scoring as a sophomore - I'm still guessing that Krejci will end up close to the lead barring injury. He roared up to catch Lucic in points last year. He might have trouble catching Bergeron, though - PB is "on-pace" to tie his career high of 73 points.

What i notice is that seguin playing with beger and march theres really not as much chemistry with them as between those 2. Seguin is more of an explosive player on his own. hes still learning so im not concerned. Hes a threat any time hes on the ice, I like his pp performance of late, good decisions there and with the team actually slupming lately, its affecting his game.

Still the plus / minus leader, so even if he's not getting the points, he's not giving up any either, and that means the players he is playing with as well. A nice overall package to have on your team.

A factor we forget is Seguin's transition to the big boy schedule. Marchand had the luxury of playing every day last year, then was able to kick it up a notch at the end. Seguin never had to do that until this year.

Seguin the last time I checked was only a young 20 years of age. Too young to tell if there is any appreciative drop off. It is not exactly as if the Bs team is lighting up the scoreboard with solid play lately, so the mid winter malaise just has one more member, Seguin. Stamkos is always the measuring stick, but let us face the fact, he may not be a Stamkos. Leave well enough alone though.

seguin's game is much more than just scoring, although that is a major skill. His puck possesion and passing are better than most on the team. rarely does he make a bad pass, and even with increasing defense against him, he is still contributing to both Bergie and Marchand. He is developing into an excellent puck control guy even against bigger and stronger players. Remember, he is a young 20.

Teams are keying on that line with Horton out. Seguin is being hit more and wingers are dropping down in the high slot to foil Tyler's 3rd man high positioning. Seguin will work his way out of it but it will have to include tips and garbage goals.

Tyler looks like he is fighting the puck a little lately. Bobbling the puck in scoring areas and just looking generally like he's lacking confidence. He still looks dangerous, so when the puck starts going in LOOK OUT!!
